Thanks, sam
I've been following the Tarheels since their undefeated championship team in 1957.  It was my boyhood dream to one day play for Carolina.  Unfortunately, though I made it to Chapel Hill as a student, I wasn't good enough to cut it as a walk-on to the basketball team.  I wasn't tall enough, fast enough, or just plain good enough for the Heels even when they were mediocre.  But UNC will always be my first love as far as college athletics go.  When it comes to professional sports I follow the same four teams you list in your "about me" page.  I was raised by a grandfather who was a big Tigers fan.  It made since to me to pull for the other pro teams in the state of my birth.

As you wrapped up with S. May, I was thinking the same, it can happen. The tournament is about who wants it bad enough ever minute it is being played. The best can go cold shooting, but pure desire to be champion can be monumental. Good luck to your team.   sam
